Day 6

Some participants of Jax's challenge seem to produce the most beautiful macros, so I went on a hunt for suitable subjects. I found that a few really large bushes produced the most beautiful tiny flowers that I have never noticed.


I thought these little candle-like blossoms were unique.

The fruit on this palm will eventually turn a beautiful shade of red. In the meantime I captured the bunch of nuts as one had a little face that reminded me of a character in the Popeye comic strips.


Isn't it wonderful how nature invented the colour wheel?


This vine is one of my favourites. It is called Mexican Creeper here. I guess it originally came from central America. The bees love it.

I spotted Olive Oyl. Funny! I love that second image with the nuts the very best, but the pink flowers are gorgeous too.
